The multiplicity and the Wyckoff letter say how many copies of the site the group makes in one cell and on which kind of symmetry element the site sits; the 60 atoms drawn above are these sites multiplied by all 24 operations. Press Wyckoff under Colour to see the sites, and tick a symmetry element on the left to see which atoms lie on it.
How to read the label
AB3C_cP60_201_be_fh_g-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol cP60, then the space-group number 201, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (K: 4b; K: 8e; O: 12f; Sb: 12g; O: 24h). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
Note: HT.
